Our hero has to get to his destination yesterday, and he's on foot. Unfortunately, there's a huge crowd between him and his goal, and for whatever reason, shouting at them to get out of his way just isn't cutting it. His only option is to weave his way through the crowd Frogger-style; changing speeds, cutting left and right to avoid clumps of people, and sometimes even ducking under carried objects and jumping over the incidental obstacles like benches and garbage cans. Generally, if the person is being chased or is fleeing a scene, they'll not even bother dodging, preferring to just bull their way through a crowd as best they can. (Naturally, the hero has to be nicer about it than the villain.) Of course, if the person being chased does this right, they tend to be Lost in a Crowd. If the hero is holding onto a MacGuffin, odds are he'll lose it, and have to play a game of Crowd Hockey in order to get it back. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })If one half of a couple is about to leave on a plane/boat/train/whatever, the odds that the other person will have to run the Mobstacle Course increase exponentially. This can often be in a scary dream sequence: the character is doing their best to move forward in the crowd, only to find that said crowd is getting denser and denser, resulting in the character being swept away as if in a tidal wave. Happens quite a bit in Crime and Punishment Series with the "Cop(s) chasing Suspect(s)" version. See Chase-Scene Obstacle Course when the hero start knocking over random objects behind him in order to hinder his pursuers. Often a case of Truth in Television. Occasionally Played for Laughs. Compare to Excuse Me, Coming Through!, where the crowd parts just when the hero or villain needs it to. If the character chooses a more direct path through the masses, it's a Foe-Tossing Charge. See also Le Parkour. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Examples: |

In Foreign Correspondent, diplomat van Meer is assassinatednote Or so we are led to believe; the victim is actually an impostor. in a public square in Amsterdam in front of a large crowd. The assassin has to push his way through the crowd to escape, and as the scene takes place on a typically rainy Dutch day, his escape path is indicated by the motion of the crowd's umbrellas. | |

The Matrix: During the "Agent Training Program", Neo is continually bumping into people as he and Morpheus walk against the flow through a crowded New York City street. Conveniently, the crowd parts for Morpheus. Later, Neo is forced to do this while running through crowds of people in the streets while escaping from the three Agents near the end of the movie. The Agents tend to just throw people out of their way. Or shoot them. Or simply change places with them. |

In the fifth episode of Wolf Hall, Henry VIII is proclaimed dead after a jousting accident and Thomas Cromwell rushes to the scene to find a tent crammed with Howards and Boleyns and other panicking or opportunistic individuals, all yelling their heads off. He has to push and shove his way through to get to Henry and do some proto-CPR on him. (There's a bit of Enforced Method Acting during the scene, as the other actors were supposed to make it easier for Mark Rylance to get through, but were too caught up in acting the mob that he really did have to grab them and shove them aside.) | |

James Bond examples: Thunderball features the classic chase in the Junkanoo parade, where an injured Bond is desperately trying to get away from Fiona Volpe and her Mooks. He fails, and makes it out alive only thanks to some Deadly Dodging. The ski chase in On Her Majesty's Secret Service has this right in the middle, at Bond's Darkest Hour after escaping from Piz Gloria...which is when Tracy di Vincenzo re-enters the plot to save his bacon. Casino Royale (2006): Mollaka, the bomb-making Le Parkour villain, gets chased by Bond in Madagascar through a construction site and an embassy. He practically goes out of his way to push and shove bystanders aside as well as kick one off a superstructure quite ruthlessly, even though he demonstrates several times that he can avoid obstacles with ease with his free running skill. Quantum of Solace: Bond chases a bad guy through the audience of a horse race. Skyfall: Bond chasing Silva through the London Underground during rush hour. Spectre: Bond chases Marco Sciarra through a whole parade of people celebrating the Day of the Dead in the pre-title sequence. |

Mario Party 5: In the minigame Pushy Penguins, the players are standing on a snowy coast, and then a multitude of penguins (including big ones) approaches. The objective is to avoid being dragged into the cold water by the incoming penguins, which becomes increasingly difficult as more of them approach. The last player remaining wins, though more than one can win if they survive after 30 seconds. | |

You do this automatically if someone's in your way in [PROTOTYPE]. If you're sprinting then the crowd is sent flying. In the former case they'll get annoyed and confront you if you stick around, in the later case they'll start running and screaming (or shooting if they're a soldier or policeman). This can be an annoyance though, when trying to do stealth. | |

Wanted. One of the various climatic scenes is this trope on fire. The main character runs through a huge loom hallway covered with explosive rats, shooting the hell out of everyone that gets in his way, never once reloading his weapons- instead, he catches the guns his enemies drop out of the air. And he doesn't stop moving. | |

In Aladdin, our introduction to the titular character occurs as he dashes with a stolen piece of bread through crowds, fakirs, and herds of sheep with ease while his pursuers take the "toss-everyone-aside" approach. | |

Casino Royale (2006): Mollaka, the bomb-making Le Parkour villain, gets chased by Bond in Madagascar through a construction site and an embassy. He practically goes out of his way to push and shove bystanders aside as well as kick one off a superstructure quite ruthlessly, even though he demonstrates several times that he can avoid obstacles with ease with his free running skill. | |

In Unknown (2011), during an on-foot chase scene through a hospital, the assassin is constantly blocked by people in his path, which prevents him from catching on to the hero who can escape. | |

In Psycho Busters, one character is trapped in a illusion of a town full of zombies. He uses this trope to avoid the zombies. | |

Dead Rising lets you do this through crowds of zombies if you position your jumps right. Not in the Wii version, where you instead just blast your way through with your guns. | |

Sena in Eyeshield 21 has been doing this since he was a kid, so his dodging skills are insane: Even while holding cellphones or other loads he can easily weave through crowds while not noticeably hitting many of them. This is actually his main Establishing Character Moment and the moment that kicks off the whole plot: Hiruma watches him run away from the Ha-Ha Bros as they continue their usual bullying routine, even weaving through a rush hour mob, and sees a perfect football player. | |

Thunderball features the classic chase in the Junkanoo parade, where an injured Bond is desperately trying to get away from Fiona Volpe and her Mooks. He fails, and makes it out alive only thanks to some Deadly Dodging. | |
